Are you ready for some football??
Here we go again for another season of NFL, Poolaholic style!
We’re back once again with the standard spread pool AND the suicide pool. I’ll be updating the site with all the rules and pricing information soon, but for now you can feel free to register for the pools and start thinking about your picks. There are still a couple of weeks of preseason football to go, and then the big show starts on Thursday, September 10th at 8:30 PM (ET). All picks must be in prior to game time.
I’ve sent out invitations to registor for the pools to all players from last years pools. Please feel free to forward those invites to your friends and family members. I’m not looking to make the pool huge, but a few more prizes to spread around is always a good thing.
Here are the direct links in case you didn’t get the email:
Poolaholic NFL 2009 (Against the Spread)
Poolaholic NFL09Suic (Suicide Pool)
Don’t forget to register for BOTH pools as they are both included in your registration fee. Week 1 Spreads are already available on the site and you can start entering your picks right away!
NFL Schedule for 2009
This website gets pretty quiet during the NFL offseason. That’s mainly because I really don’t have anything interesting to say. I don’t get too excited about all the player trades or the draft talk, and let’s face it, Tom and Giselle getting married for a second time really isn’t prime-time news for me (even if shots were fired at the paparazzi following the event).
But when they announce that the NFL will be releasing the schedule for the upcoming season in a live, 2-hour prime-time telecast “for the first time ever”, I start to get pretty excited.
Excited about how ridiculous that is!
It’s even worse than when TSN devotes an entire day every year on NHL draft day for their live talking heads, who really don’t have anything new or interesting to say because they’ve said it all before (yes I mean you Pierre), to speculate about how many squares of TP John Tavares might use during the first day of his NHL career!
Don’t we have anything better to do than to watch 2 hours of talking heads chatting about the schedule for something that won’t even happen for 5 more months?
Go outside people!
